The DynaQuip Controls WCACT1 WaterCop Actuator is designed to detect leaks in your plumbing system at predetermined locations, and automatically shut off the water supply to help effectively reduce the chances of major water damage associated with a leak.

The Watercop System is composed of two basic parts:

A motorized ball valve that houses a wireless radio receiver which automatically turns off your water supply when any flood sensor detects water or low temperature sensor detects potential freezing.

Flood sensors (Sold Separately) which detect water from a leak or overflow, house a wireless radio transmitter that sends a signal to the WaterCop to turn off your water supply.

How the System Works
Flood sensors constantly monitor their selected areas for accumulating moisture. When a leak is detected, a sensor will send a radio frequency signal to the WaterCop unit instructing it to shut off the water supply to the home. The WaterCop valve will remain closed until it is manually reset. The flood sensors are a battery powered device enabling them to be located anywhere a leak is likely to occur, or where water might cause damage. The Water Cop requires household electrical power (common 115 VAC, grounded outlet) and will not operate during a power outage.
